Hi, can someone let me know which inner rubber goes on each side. just bought new ones and the number has been ground off. one has one dot and the other has 2 dots, i cant remember which is which
Do you mean the inner and outer rubber doughnuts for the torsion bar spring plates.
These are either smooth or nobby depending on your year of bug.
madness is in the eye of the beholder 👍
without the part numbers this is going to be difficult...
depending on what model beetle you have too...
for IRS rear ends ;
311 511 245 Left outer and Right hand Inner
311 511 246 Left inner & Right hand Outer
check out CIP1 website for pics... may help...

yeah IRS rear, its the inner rubber bush i need help with.
can just make out the 6 on one of them so it should be L/H inner
Take a look at VW Heritage. It's a UK VW parts supplier and they have excellent exploded views of every part of a VW from karmanns to bays 🙂
If you look at the torsion tube you will see if you need a smooth doughnut or one with nobby bits.

Dots go to the top

IRS bushes are pretty hard to stuff up,
i havent had a swinger apart for years but i know on my Lbug that the inner bushings only go in 1 way cos of the lugs on them
the inner bushes will fit either side. thanks to all for their help
